Our litigious society
Samuel Cutrufelli, 31, filed a lawsuit in October in Sacramento County, Calif., claiming that Jay Leone, 90, “negligently” shot him.
Cutrufelli had burglarized Leone’s home, unaware that Leone was home. When Leone reached for one of his stashed handguns, Cutrufelli shot him in the jaw and then pulled the trigger point-blank at Leone’s head, but was out of bullets.
Leone then shot Cutrufelli several times, which Cutrufelli apparently felt was entirely unnecessary.
